A large crowd gathered in downtown Oliver Springs Oct. 19 for the sixth annual 'October Sky' Fall Festival & Heritage at the Depot event, hosted by the city and the local Historical Society. The festival's name is derived from the film 'October Sky,' partially filmed in Oliver Springs years ago. In turn, the film was based on the book 'Rocket Boys' by Homer Hickam. Live entertainment, arts & crafts, plenty of food and a car show were featured.
